The VVTi is enabled and functional, but the amount of adjustment has been restricted by a few degrees to remove the possibility of piston to valve contact. This was done because it would be possible when programming the ECU to enter a value that cause piston to valve contact and we wanted to remove the chance for damage to occur due to an error or electronic glitch.

^ I didn't even think about that! Hmmmmmmmmm
PHOENIX,

When Lyndon set my ECU up he did the cold starting and some road mapping first but left setting the cam control side of things until we got to the dyno. Think at the time he said he wouldn't set the cams up without a controlled environment in case there was any chance of contact. Took a little over 3.5hours on the dyno whereas I think Lyndon said it's normally an hour or so for regular non VVT-i engines. Don't think he fancied setting up a Black Top after he finished with mine, one variable cam was enough to deal with.
